    That would be the time I was in a car accident. Dude came barrelling down the wrong side of the street, my father swerved to get out of his way, but not enough. The driver side of the car got smashed. Never occurred to me before, but Dad was pretty lucky to walk away from that one. Our dude was all apologies, but in court he denied he was even there that day. We had witnesses, he lost, but somehow couldn’t afford to fix our car for us. We drove around like that for months.

    Weirdly, I’ve been tapped from the back three times while stopped at traffic lights. One taxi, one SUV and one bus. Hasn’t happened since I switched to driving a white car.
